Cliff,
You might try the locally available live sphagnum, I have always
prefered it to sand/peat mixes. For sand/peat, I have been trying a 2
sand /1 peat mix lately. To early to tell how this works but it is
closer to what you see in the field. I don't think winter temps should
be a problem. The few nights in the 30s and 40s I have seem to be
enough and there are a number of growers further south. Otherwise, I
would guess that you're comment about salt may be the answer. Have you
considered an RO unit or something similar to ensure that any salt will
continue to be flushed out of the system?
It seems to me that seedlings transplant more easily than more mature plants.
For more mature plants I would definitely wait until about February; to be on
the safe side, however, I would wait for the seedlings too.
